Egg-cellent Breakfast Tip
Trying to whittle your waistline? You might want to rethink your morning meal. Recent research found that men and women who ate two eggs for breakfast as part of a low-calorie diet lost 65 percent more weight and had a 61 percent greater reduction in BMI than their counterparts who started the day with an equal-calorie bagel breakfast. Eggs, a high-quality protein, kept people more satisfi ed until their next meal, which helped them stick to and succeed on a reducedcalorie diet. Because the American Heart Association recommends keeping cholesterol intake to less than 300 mg per day (below 200 for those with heart disease and high LDL cholesterol), try scrambling an egg yolk (around 210 mg cholesterol) with two egg whites for a high-protein, cholesterol-conscious breakfast.
